12. It's a strange phenomenon.

I once knew a guy on the more-or-less local pool tournament circuit. Decent player, but a bizarre attitude. There are a number of archetypes in that little world - those that whine when they lose, or try to find external causes beyond their control, those that gloat, some have a very inflated vision of their talent.

In this guy's case, he was so addicted to whining that he whined when he won. He was the only one I ever encountered like that.

The GOP has all of those whining skills polished to a fine sheen.
